Publishing House Akademperiodyka (Ukrainian: Видавничий дім «Академперіодика», romanized: Vydavnychnyj dim "Akademperiodyka") is a publisher of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine (NASU), and a core organisation of the Scientific and Publishing Council of the NASU. Founded in 2001, it publishes academic periodicals (hence the name "Academ-periodica"), scientific journals, collections, fundamental monographs, textbooks for higher education institutions, dictionaries, and popular science literature. The primary mission of the publishing house is to inform the Ukrainian and foreign public about the achievements of national science. In December 2024, it took over the activities of the oldest Ukrainian publishing house, Naukova Dumka.

History

[edit]

In the first half of the 1990s, the lack of funding at the Academy of Sciences made it difficult to publish scientific papers. To remedy the situation, the Scientific and Publishing Council developed a concept for preserving and supporting scientific literature, especially periodicals. On the initiative of the Council, the NASU Presidium on 21 April 1995 decided to establish a Specialised Printing House of Scientific Journals.

Thanks to a grant from the International Renaissance Foundation, the first printing equipment was purchased. The company was lucky enough to buy back some of the worn-out equipment for a bargain, restore it and put it into operation. The difficult stage of setting up production was successfully completed due to the efforts of the first director of the printing house, L. F. Kurtenko.

Since the late 1990s, the area of prepress has been actively developing. An editorial and publishing unit was created, which included the editorial offices of the journals Bulletin of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine and Reports of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine. The editorial, publishing, and printing stages of their publication were merged. In a few years, the printing house has been preparing and publishing 14 periodicals of the NAS of Ukraine.

The emergence of modern printing and computer technology has made it possible to significantly expand publishing activities. In view of this, on 13 October 2000, the NASU Presidium adopted the resolution "On the reorganisation of the Specialised Printing House of Scientific Journals at the Presidium of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine". Since 2001, the Specialised Printing House has been operating as the Publishing House Akademperiodyka. The structure of the institution was improved, the staff was increased, and production capacity was expanded. Since then, the tasks of the publishing house have included not only publishing, printing and distribution of scientific journals, but also providing printing services, methodological and advisory assistance on all publishing issues to the editors of academic periodicals. For this purpose, a special group of scientific and methodological support for the publishing activities of the NAS of Ukraine has been organised.

As of 2014, Akademperiodyka together with scientific institutions publishes sets of 43 scientific periodicals[1] The publishing house has mastered full-colour printing, publishing books in hardcover and paperback. Since its inception, Akademperiodyka has published over 1000 books in Ukrainian, Russian and English.

Publisher Naukova Dumka (1922–2024) was housed in the building of the NASU Institute of Mathematics in Tereschenkivska street 3 in Kyiv until December 2024, when it was liquidated as a legal entity, and its activities were moved to publishing house Akademperiodyka across the street at Tereschenkivska 4.[2]

Journal publications

[edit]
Ukrainian Journal of Physics (2025)

As of 2025, Akademperiodyka publishes 47 journals.[3]

Many of these journals are bilingual Ukrainian/English, or have historically been bilingual Ukrainian/Russian, or trilingual Ukrainian/Russian/English. The use of English often goes back to the 1960s, initially as mere translations of abstracts or fulltext originally published in Russian or (increasingly) Ukrainian; examples include Strength of Materials and the Ukrainian Chemistry Journal. English-language content steadily increased after 1991, such as the Ukrainian Journal of Physics in 2004 commencing a separate translated English edition alongside existing Ukrainian and Russian editions; or by including original versions of articles submitted by international researchers.

In some cases, there are separate English and Ukrainian issues; in other journals, an article in English may be accompanied by an abstract or summary in Ukrainian or vice versa. A small number of journals, such as Zoodiversity (2019) and Science and Innovation (2021), have fully switched to publishing only in the English language.[4][5] Other journals, including several periodicals dedicated to (Ukrainian) linguistics, culture and society, have been Ukrainian-only ever since they were founded.

Some journals were fairly early in switching to dual digital/printed editions, or online-only publication, while others did not have web editions until the need arose at the start of the COVID-19 pandemic in Ukraine in early 2020. Virtually all journals phased out the use of the Russian language in the journal titles, article contents and abstracts at various stages between 1991 and 2023. The Russo-Ukrainian War since February 2014, and the full-scale Russian invasion of Ukraine since February 2022, motivated most of the remaining journals to cease publishing in Russian,[6] while others temporarily had to suspend their activities due to war-related disruptions.[a]

This is a dynamic list and may never be able to satisfy particular standards for completeness. You can help by adding missing items with reliable sources.
